Looks like the auction got pulled.   Shows 0 items at $99 and ended.  Hopefully the seller got a deal from someone who's going to use the molds, or at least try.

BTW I got a lot of Sunrise/NSN stuff a while back and some of it looks like masters of the EMD noses (and a GE), numberboards, and some small parts.  The parts are lead/pewter and these are brass.  There was also a small box of the body mount adapters.  I've used some and traded some.  The masters I have no clear picture of what to do with. ???

What I would love to get that Sunrise did was the pilot conversion plates to put MT couplers on the Arnold S2. Anyone got any? Just one would do to make more from resin!

Maybe the evil Wally bought then to throw them in his Xmas fire and keep us N scalers down.

I'd be interested in some of the body mount adapters if you had any available. PM me a list if so.... Thanks!

Ditto.  I could really use a few sets of these.

Wonder if the molds would be willing to take some of the newer super thin flowing plastic resins? Hummmmm.....

well lets hope that who ever snatched these up actually puts use to them.

I had a thought the other day about masters, would it be possible to cast these molds once, in a material good for masters, and make new molds from that? I know it wouldn't be as good as the orginal masters, but it might be an option.
